MacBook Pro battery

I've had my new MBP a couple of days. The first time I used it I went through the whole calibration process. Now, when it's plugged in, the indicator says its fully charged, and that I'm running off AC power, but shows a number of 97%. Where did the other 3% go??

This happen to me as well couple days ago. It show a 97% battery charged, while the magsafe light is green. Now, the battery shows that it's 100% charged while the light in magsafe still orange and the battery meter (the lights in the battery, if you look at the battery) is blinking, means it's charging. I've calibrated my battery two weeks ago. Dont know what happen..

Batteries do funky things on laptops, and every person's battery is slightly different. I only see it on 100% when I leave it off the charger and then charge it. On occasion, if I close the lid, it'll drop to 99%, but the magsafe light will still be on. My battery has only been run down once. I'll probably calibrate it next Wednesday or Thursday. :S
